Known issues on the 2013 Santa Fe Sport. Six recalls are on federal record for this model year. Two concern the engine: machining errors during the engine manufacturing process may cause premature bearing wear, and bearing wear may result in the engine seizing, increasing the risk of a crash; a later campaign covering vehicles previously repaired under the earlier recalls addresses the high pressure fuel pipe, where a fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire. Three separate campaigns cover the anti-lock brake system module — in two of them brake fluid may leak inside the ABS module, possibly resulting in an electrical short, and a short in the ABS module can increase the risk of an engine compartment fire; the third is a further ABS module campaign, where an engine compartment fire while parked or driving can increase the risk of injury. The sixth covers the hood latch, where the secondary hood latch actuating cable may corrode and bind. Owners have filed 236 complaints for the year and Hyundai has issued 84 technical service bulletins.

From engine bearing wear to an ABS module fault or a corroded hood latch cable, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2013 Santa Fe Sport.
